Focalin

Focalin, which contains the active ingredient dexmethylphenidate, is a prescription stimulant specifically designed for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). By selectively inhibiting the reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine in the brain, Focalin helps enhance focus, attention, and self-control. This medication is available in both immediate-release and extended-release forms, allowing for tailored treatment plans. Patients using Focalin may experience side effects such as decreased appetite, insomnia, and anxiety, making it essential for regular follow-up with a healthcare provider.
